Hi Steemians. So in the last couple day's I discovered my Pineapple Chunk was a hermaphrodite. A hermaphrodite cannabis plant is a plant with both female and male flower parts. Now mother nature is a beautiful thing, and having both sex organs is not an uncommon thing, nor is it bad. When growing cannabis, a hermaphrodite is something you really do not want. This is due to the offspring will be hermies, and even worse the male pollen can be released and pollinate your precious crop of sensimillia(seedless) unsuspectingly. I have no time or patience for that bullshit, so I got rid of two flowering and 2 veg plants.
A beautiful thing about a perpetual, or a "clown car grow", like the one I got, there is never any doom and gloom. I always have plants coming and going. My bench goes deep. A plant finishes flower, boom throw another in it's place. A plant hermie's, hey no big deal. Get rid of it, and get some ready for their place. I would say one ready for one that dies, but no, a plant will never die on my watch, at least not by accident. That's all i'll say about that.
My two Steem Og clones will be the ones to replace the Pineapples. I had them in one gallon pots and now will put them in their final home, 3 gallon pots. I use a mix of 3 parts Fox Farm Ocean Forest, to 1 part Happy frog.
I am using my bread tie method to bend some tops down to get some more kolas and get some more shoots for some cuttings, to keep this machine going. God forbid I have no backups and have a waste of space in the flower room. I say 1-2 weeks Ill flip these two.
Tahoo Og x Og
Here is the strain that started it all, the Tahoo Og x Og. My old room mate @hotsauceislethal got two clones from our local florist in Oct of 2016! The rest is block chain history. In case you don't know, this Tahoo cutting is the mother of Steem Og, and i've been growing it every single day since my room mate came home with them. Another thing to know about this cutting, it's absolute fire! I have had the real Og Kush back in 2006, and even till this day it is the best cannabis I have ever smoked! I have never found anything that has compared to that real Og, until I came across this cutting. It's still not as good as the real Og, but it's close.
So Ill leave these Tahoo's in one gallons until the time comes to have some ready for flower.
So hope you seeing the theme. To keep yourself smoking on your own supply with a very small space for growing, you need to have all cycles of life going on. Remember the cuttings I took with my last 3 Rapid Rooters? Well they all got roots. Soon Ill throw these into the Solo cups, then eventually into one gallons, then on to 3 gallons, and final stop, my lungs.
The way you grow (clown car) would be considered 15 or 20 plants here. Every cutting, every sprout, every living piece of plant is considered its own crime.
It makes sense from a logistical standpoint, and biologically it works. But it would never be acceptable under any "legalized" regime.
Keep up the great work :D
Thank you for being here for me, so I can be here for you.
Enjoy your day and stay creative!
Botty loves you. <3
